What to check in an outright land sale
Planning risk
Without permission, the price reflects the chance planning is refused.
Speed
A faster sale can mean a lower price than a conditional deal that waits for permission.
Title
Clean, registered title keeps an unconditional sale simple.
Vacant possession
Land free of tenants and occupiers completes more easily.

Common questions
Does an outright sale pay the most?
Usually not, for land without permission. You're trading some price for speed and certainty. A conditional deal or option may pay more but takes longer.
Can I still benefit if you get planning later?
Yes, if we agree an overage clause in the contract.
Can you pull out after exchange?
No. An unconditional exchange is legally binding on both sides.
Do you buy land in Gloucestershire?
Yes. We consider land across Gloucestershire, from Gloucester to the smaller towns and villages. Whether we can make an offer depends on the land itself, and we'll tell you either way.
